This is my 6th year with Allatoona. it's one of the best in the area - including the nearby Cobb and Cherokee Schools. The rating system has been low all 6 years and i have no idea why. Makes me doubt the validity of these ratings.

This school may be fine for neurotypical students but if you have an ND kid, AVOID at all costs. They give mouth service to any accommodations asked for without really supporting your students, and punish your children for the smallest infractions without even bothering to find out if the children understood they were committing an infraction. They won't provide support unless you specifically ask for it, and you'd better know EXACTLY what you need to ask for or you won't get any help at all. Five years here and your children will hate school and believe that they are irredeemable troublemakers after being told how bad they are for five years.

“The teachers at this school are caring and dedicated, and they do a great job with the students. Unfortunately, the administration has been disappointing. Communication is poor, concerns are often not clearly addressed, and there seems to be favoritism in how situations are handled. When issues come up between students, instead of identifying and addressing the person who is clearly causing the problem, it often feels like both children are treated as equally at fault just to avoid dealing with the real issue. The teachers deserve recognition for their hard work, but the administration needs to improve how they communicate and handle student concerns.

I got bullied and also someone could have hurt my head a lot and my sis someone put hand sanitizer I her water bottle and all the teacher hurt and bully the kids and nobody cared.
